"Hey!" Kuri waved Reiko over as she entered Hokkaido temple. She was decked out in her formal miko garb, the one with the bells on it. It was clearly the Lunar Festival. Reiko loved the Kuri Dango she made for the festivities, in fact, she was almost famous for it.
"Did you finish training before me?" she asked.
"No way," she said. "I mastered the Hiko methods of the sword, but I have yet to master the Tsubasa. That and I've been working on my Astral Projection. I want to be able to use all my powers in Astral form, but…no luck."
She shrugged, a laugh on her lips.
"You sure did do a lot," Reiko said. "I'm so strong now, that it'd be illegal for me to tussle with street fighting. Such a shame."
Kuri held out a plate of dango. "I know you didn't come to just shoot the breeze with me. It's my cooking that drove you, Reiko."
"I have a weapon too!" Reiko grinned.
Kuri choked on her dango, glaring at Reiko. "You have a weapon?"
Reiko deadpanned. "I'm older than you Kuri. And I bonded with it. It gave itself to me Some weapons have a spirit of their own. It's called the Naginata of Kenkon. My attacks are electricity based, and I've been able to touch and handle electricity. Probably due to my light-base nature."
"What the hell's that supposed to mean?"
"Kitsune are spirit foxes, right?" Reiko said. "Well we aren't normal yokai. They're energy is light based, giving me the ability to do strange things like orb, which means I teleports by dissolving into orbs of light. I can also avoid attacks by dissolving like that."
"I hate to interrupt one of your long winded explanations, but we're being followed."
"I know," Reiko laughed. "I've been leading."
She stopped in a dead end alley, and they were instantly surrounded by some zombie style street toughs. "K-Kill…"
Kuri flung out her hands and the toughs froze. "They are infected humans, so the freeze won't hold them long. My powers are only potent against the truly evil."
"Great," grunted Reiko. "I'll take them in one shot. Fulminus!"
The freeze came undone and the zombies all fell to the ground as bullets of electricity hit each of them hard. Tiny bugs crawled out of their mouths.
"Good job guys," Ninako said, coming out of the shadows. "This was your next mission. Koenma got a letter from the Four Saint Beasts demanding the spirit world to allow them to stay in the human world or else they would infect all of the humans and have them destroy each other. They are being controlled by a whistle held by the leader of the Saint Beasts in the city, and you must destroy it."
